Square Enix released their Q1 fiscal results today. While underlining a decrease of 29.1 percent and 51.9 percent for net sales and operating income, respectively (in comparison to the prior fiscal year), the report also reveals Final Fantasy XIII-2 will launch in “early 2012″ for Europe.

The RPG sequel is listed as “Dec. 2011″ for Japan and “Jan. 2012″ for North America, which might imply a later launch for European territories.
